Rose McGowan had never uttered a word of English until the age of 10. Born and raised as a child in Italy, McGowan grew up surrounded by a large family in Florence and was as far away from the world of acting as one could be. It wasn’t until her family moved to the United States, that she decided to make the move to Los Angeles to pursue acting. In 1997, she got her first big break in Pauly Shore ’s comedy ENCINO MAN and hasn’t stopped working since. Although many of McGowan’s fans may recognize her from her more commercial hits, her first starring role was actually in an independent role. After a fortuitous meeting with Gregg Araki in Los Angeles, he decided to cast her landed her as Amy Blue in his black comedy THE DOOM GENERATION. Her portrayal of the troubled teen brought her to the attention of critics everywhere, and she was nominated for Best Debut Performance at the Independent Spirit Awards in 1996.
McGowan followed up THE DOOM GENERATION with a variety of films, most notably Wes Craven’s horror blockbuster SCREAM. Starring alongside, Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, and Matthew Lillard, McGowan played Tatum Riley in the teen flick. In 1998, she appeared in the independent film SOUTHIE, which won Best Picture at the 2000 Seattle Film Festival. Then, in 1999 she co-starred in the comedy JAWBREAKER as teen Courtney Shane and her performance earned her a nomination for Best Villain at the 1999 MTV Movie Awards. In 2001, McGowan replaced Shannon Dougherty on the popular television series CHARMED as the long lost Halliwell sister Paige. She starred opposite Alyssa Milano and Holly Marie Combs until the show ended in 2006. For her role as Paige, she won the 2005 Family Television Award for “favorite sister.” Recently, she starred opposite Jonathan Rhys Myers in the television mini-series ELVIS playing Ann-Margaret. Currently, McGowan can be seen in the Brian De Palma film THE BLACK DAHLIA alongside Hilary Swank, Josh Hartnett, and Scarlett Johansson. McGowan currently resides in Los Angeles, CA .
